That's not where the HP2 stamp is supposed to be. It should be up next to the numbers "440". Down there would be the sequential number of the engines built that day, easily modified to read "HP2", and any Maltese cross and/or "X" indicating undersize crankshaft. The "11 11" is the month and date of engine assembly, and the spacing in the bottom row can vary widely. In '69 there was no engine serial number per so the claim can't be verified. The HP motors had identically cast blocks, just different innards and bolt-ons. Since this is a full race rebuild, the innards are not original and therefor not stock "HP". caveat emptor
Happy motoring,
